Chapter 585 - 585: Greetings



Lily’s POV:

It was dark before me as if someone had covered my eyes with a black cloth.

I was kidnapped. The kidnappers did not hide their presence. Someone noticed me and roughly pulled me up from the ground by my hair.

“Good afternoon, Miss.” It sounded like a young man. “I’m sorry that my subordinates treated you so rudely. They are used to being casual. Please forgive them.”

I hoped that his subordinates would treat pulling his hair as a greeting. They seemed to have sealed my throat in some way. I couldn’t make a sound.

“I think you must be puzzled about why we invited you as a guest. Moreover, this is your home, the Silver Moon family’s territory. Perhaps in your eyes, we are a group of uninvited guests. But don’t be angry, please allow me to tell you why we’re here. And I hope you can remain calm, Miss. I personally don’t like noisy ladies.”

I nodded. Someone wiped a cold liquid on my neck.

“Who are you? If you want the ransom, it’s best to complete the transaction before the end of the Moonlight Festival. The royal and Silver Moon families must already know I’ve gone missing. Once the tourists leave, they won’t have any more worries and will search for your tracks in the Silver Moon Pack. By then, you won’t be able to escape even if you have wings.”

I had no choice but to lower my head in front of others. I wasn’t stupid enough to think I could break out of the thieves’ lair alone and temporarily stabilize them to ensure my safety… if they were really kidnappers, that was.

Unfortunately, they were not.

The young man chuckled, and his men laughed as if I was joking.

“Well, gentlemen, bring a chair for the lady,” he said. “We are not kidnappers, and we don’t need ransom. I invited you here on a whim. You weren’t part of my plan, but my subordinates recognized you. I thought that your participation would make everything much more interesting.”

I didn’t have many friends or acquaintances, so it was naturally impossible to know any crazy people. To be able to make a terrorist recognize me, I must have gotten into some trouble without knowing.

I tried to figure out his intentions, but he continued before I could open my mouth, “Unfortunately, he has been captured by your clan. I’m afraid he won’t be able to see you again. It is always a pity, so I have decided to help you.”

”1 don’t think it’s necessary. No matter who he is, I don’t know him, and I don’t want to see him.”

“That won’t do. I’m a man of my word. Since I’ve promised him, I have to keep my word.”

“Who is he? Who are you?”

“That’s not important. We don’t have time for small talk.”

1 felt someone approaching me and gently caressing my hair, ears, cheeks, and neck. The cold sensation was like a poisonous snake, making me shudder.

Then, he placed a paper box on my lap and held my hand to touch the bow tied at the top.

“A gift, Miss. It’s not good for a new guest to come empty-handed, so I prepared this for the city of Silver Moon. I wanted to leave it here quietly as a surprise for the owner. However, since you’re here, the rules of this game might as well be changed.

“Can you feel it? It was a small clock with a mechanical design, which is much more exquisite than those stupid electronic products. It hasn’t started yet. I’ve set the time for it to run for three hours. Once the hour hand has completed three rounds, the gift will jump out of the box by itself.”

“… What’s inside?” I felt the box on my leg was heavy, giving me a nauseating feeling.

He took the box away and placed it in front of me. He opened a small gap, and the next second, a sharp warning went off in my mind, ‘Stay away from it! It is dangerous! It is dangerous! Hurry up and leave!’

I struggled violently, which greatly pleased the man who was teasing me. He closed the lid and moved closer to my temples, which were soaked in a cold sweat. He laughed and said, “This is made of pure silver powder without impurities. Before they were ground into powder, they were lucky enough to be soaked in a god’s blood. The sweet, pure, and supreme liquid amplified their power countless times and filled them with the grace of a god. There was also a little witchcraft to make it easier for this gift to be delivered to each master.” Silver and a god’s blood from an unknown cult. This box of a gift was a time bomb aimed at the werewolves.

Great, now I was convinced this was a terrorist attack, and the target was the Silver Moon Pack. As for me, an unlucky fellow who didn’t look at my fortune when I went out, I supposed I’d be the first to die under this attack.

“Time’s up, we’re leaving. By the way, there is a voice-detecting spell on your throat. Once your decibel exceeds 100 decibels, the gift will explode in advance.”

“Who are you?” I didn’t dare to move, fearing that abnormal movements would cause the bomb to explode prematurely.

The man’s voice was already very far away. It seemed that he had walked to the door. Hearing my question, he laughed wickedly and replied arrogantly, “The Lily of the Valley sends its regards to you, Miss.

“So, the countdown begins..”
